They've demonstrated it doesn't really matter whether you call it a king or a president, it's how much power you give them.
There's an object lesson here for all the people who have been pushing for the mommy government. Sometimes you get an assole, abusive trailer park mommy.
First, as someone else stated, a DSP is generally a business. Not an individual. That said, I do know some people who have incorporated themselves just to get around the whole "We deal with businesses, not individuals" rules.
But then, it comes down to what contract terms Amazon offers DSPs. Certainly, nobody in their right mind* is going to partner with Amazon for a price that won't cover their expenses. Rural areas with high fuel costs per delivery will bid more for their service. Or not sign up. Amazon, if they are not dumb as rocks, will add this variable cost to the bottom line of each purchase. After all, they are not the USPS with universal service written into law.
*Uber/Lyft will make a liar out of me. There are people living on the edge of poverty for the opportunity to buy a car, insurance, fuel and maintenance just to chauffeur some zoomers around.
Didn't we just have a No Kings day?
How does does a flag sent by the OS that the user sets to whatever they want satisfy that requirement?
Caveat: I haven't examined systemd's aproach to the "age field", so this may not be easy or possible. But one approach would be to build an "age" record structure. Where one can enter an appropriate value, tied to their system user id. Then ship that off to a certified verification authority together with photo id. The authority cryptographically signs the record and returns it to the user. Who may then pass it on to any "adult-only" sites that request it.
If this could be done, it puts systemd out of the age verification business. Since that record could be stored in any one of a number of place in the file system. Of course any one of these approaches could be defeated by a skilled coder who can root around file systems and find Dad's OnlyFans certificate. Then it's blackmail. You leave me alone or I'll tell Mom.
The laws in several countries are going to require it.
Then they can fork off their own version of GNU/Linux. China has done so. And I'd venture a guess that these are all Chinese regulatory compliant.
Quantum computing is so yesterday. It's all AI today, baby!
These attacks have users copy and paste a string to something that can execute a command line.

ClickFix attempts and stop them by prompting the user if they really wanted to run those commands.
I've seen this on one of my recent Linux installs (Devuan). I get a warning before pasting into a shell prompt. That's not a problem because I know how to inspect text (tiny fonts, etc) copied from an untrusted source before running them*. Unfortunately, it also seems to interfere with the 'copy from terminal' functions. Which makes it a real annoyance.
*I've caught a few of these. And rather than deleting them, I've tweaked some of the concealed commands to see if I can't have some real fun with the originators. At this moment, someone might be sitting in an interrogation room, answering questions from counterintelligence.
And the profitable business opportunities for Sora involve customers like Disney. Who don't want to be associated with porn.
